Fence installation covers a new boundary where none exists, or full replacement of an existing run. Work includes setting out post centres, digging footings into clay or alluvial subsoil, concreting posts, fitting rails and panels, and attaching gravel boards where the specification requires them.
Installation process
Posts are set in concrete with depth and diameter suited to fence height and soil type. On level suburban gardens in Acomb, Clifton and Dringhouses, standard panel bays suit prefabricated systems. On irregular boundaries or plots with varying ground level, panels are stepped or raked to follow the site while keeping a consistent top line.
Old fencing removal and disposal are listed separately in the quote when required.
Residential and commercial installation
Residential work includes garden fencing and gates. Commercial and security installations use metal systems — see commercial fencing and security fencing.
